Marcarita's expression froze, leaving her utterly speechless.
Whis looked slightly confused, thinking to himself, "Good heavens, the strongest universe is actually… me?"
Everyone knew that Chiga was an existence even greater than an Angel. Even if Jiren were summoned here, he'd still end up with one solid slap across the face.
Whichever universe Chiga belonged to instantly became the strongest by default—and since Chiga regarded himself as a part of the Seventh Universe, it was only natural to call it the most powerful.
Marcarita pouted and glanced at Chiga, her expression filled with worry.
"Chiga, if my universe gets erased… will you use the Super Dragon Balls to bring it back?"
Chiga looked at her pitiful face and smiled faintly.
"Why are you suddenly so scared? Even if the universe is erased, you, as an Angel, won't disappear with it."
"But I don't want to fall asleep! That endless silence is terrifying!"
"Then," Chiga said with a teasing smirk, "it'll depend on how well you behave."
Marcarita immediately perked up, placing a hand over her chest.
"From now on, I'll listen to you completely! Whatever you tell me to do, I'll do it!"
"Oh?"
Chiga raised an eyebrow, his smile turning slightly mischievous. Marcarita shivered under that look.
"You… you wouldn't want to do that to me, would you?"
"Do what?"
"Like what you did with Lazuli that night…"
"Marcarita!"
Lazuli's face flushed crimson. She glared at Marcarita in fury and embarrassment, snapping the chopsticks in her hand clean in half.
Marcarita stuck out her tongue. It wasn't her fault—last time, she had just happened to pass by the door and accidentally caught a glimpse of something that definitely couldn't be shown on television!
Chiga coughed awkwardly, his expression shifting back to seriousness.
"Alright, enough fooling around. Let's talk business. Since Vados already found six, we just need the last Super Dragon Ball. It shouldn't be too difficult."
Vados shook her head slowly.
"Chiga, finding the last one isn't as easy as you think. I've been searching for ages—so long that I've lost count of the years—and still, no trace."
Though the Super Dragon Balls were massive, rivaling the size of planets, compared to an entire universe, they were like specks of dust in an endless ocean—especially since their search spanned across two universes.
However, Chiga already had a clue. The last Super Dragon Ball was hidden beneath a thick layer of rock, appearing as nothing more than an ordinary planet.
Finding it wasn't impossible. He could simply ask Bulma to craft a new radar, one capable of tracking Super Dragon Balls. With six as samples, Bulma's brilliance would make it possible.
Thinking of that, Chiga said to Vados,
"Vados, let's head to the Sixth Universe together and retrieve those six Super Dragon Balls."
Vados showed no hesitation. "Alright." She had Chiga place his hand on her back, and in the next instant, they transformed into beams of light, vanishing into the cosmic void.

Journey Through the Void
As they sped through space, Vados suddenly shifted slightly.
"Chiga, perhaps you should change your posture. This is… a bit awkward."
Chiga blinked. "But isn't this how you usually carry the God of Destruction?"
"That's different," Vados said, turning her head, a faint blush coloring her cheeks. "It's rare for it to be just the two of us. Can't you be a little bolder?"
Chiga was caught off guard by her sudden forwardness, but he wasn't inexperienced. Without hesitation, he wrapped his arm around her slender waist, pulling her closer into his chest.
"How about this?"
Vados smiled faintly, pressing her lips together as her long eyelashes fluttered closed. She leaned into his embrace, but Chiga could feel a cold bead of sweat trickling down his forehead.
She was still driving—and at a speed faster than light. Was it really okay to close her eyes right now?
Fortunately, Vados was a skilled navigator, and their landing was smooth. They soon arrived at the temple where the God of Destruction, Champa, resided.

At the Temple of Destruction
Champa was fast asleep, snoring loudly, with a massive snot bubble inflating and deflating from his nostril.
Chiga's mouth twitched as he looked at the comical sight.
"Has he been asleep ever since that battle?"
Vados blinked her large eyes and nodded.
"I really hit him that hard? Why hasn't the bump on his head gone down yet?"
Vados said nothing—just nodded again, suspiciously calm.
Chiga squinted at her. He had a feeling she might've done something… extra. Maybe a touch of angelic hypnosis, perhaps.
Without a word, Vados tapped the crystal orb on her staff. A soft light rippled through it, and moments later, six colossal Super Dragon Balls emerged around the temple, each one radiating divine power.
Compared to these titanic orbs, Earth's Dragon Balls seemed like toys—mere miniature versions at best. Each one here was easily the size of a planet.
Through his Tenseigan, Chiga could see the burning, sun-like core of divine law pulsing inside them. The energy was overwhelming, majestic, and ancient.
As he watched, a sudden burning sensation surged in his eyes. He instinctively clutched them in pain.
Vados gasped and rushed to his side. "Chiga! What's happening?!"
Chiga slowly removed his hands, revealing brilliant sun-shaped patterns blazing within his pupils. Flames flickered around his irises, fierce and divine.
Those eyes—the mark of the Ōtsutsuki God.
Chiga raised his head toward the six Super Dragon Balls, the sun-patterns spinning rapidly within his gaze.
With his enhanced vision, Chiga invoked Sukunahikona.
A silent wave rippled outward, invisible yet immense.
Before long, the six planet-sized Dragon Balls began to shrink, condensing until they were only the size of ordinary Dragon Balls—each burning brightly with golden flame.
They hovered behind Chiga, circling him like six radiant Truth-Seeking Orbs, crackling with divine power.
His long, snow-white hair turned brilliant gold, flowing wildly like flames in the wind. The crimson horns on his head gleamed, heated by the overwhelming energy radiating from his body.
A golden dragon-shaped mark shimmered faintly across his chest, and from within it echoed the low, distant sound of a dragon's roar.
Vados stood frozen, unable to move or even speak. Chiga's current state was unlike anything she had ever seen—not even among the Angels or Gods of Destruction.
He had fused with the Super Dragon itself.

"Haa…"
Chiga exhaled slowly, his breath hot enough to distort the air. He looked down at the golden dragon tattoo pulsing faintly on his chest, his expression filled with disbelief and awe.
He could feel it—the boundless strength surging through every fiber of his being. It was as though the entire cosmos now bent to his will. With a single thought, he could create or erase worlds.
Vados gazed at him in stunned silence. The being before her was no longer merely powerful. He had ascended beyond the limits of divine hierarchy itself.
From this moment onward…
Uchiha Chiga was no longer a warrior, nor merely a god.
He was the embodiment of creation and destruction—
The Dragon God of the Multiverse.
